Question: I comeacross ppl say about packet editing and i don't really know how to edit a packet.

I try to tap some packet send from a client game to a server using Winsock Packet Editor or a sniffer program and manage to find the packet stream where seems everytime the same kind of packet send to the server have different data value. With this seems that the packet are encrypt so may i know how to see what inside the encrypt packet sended by the client and how to edit them ?

The data contained in the packet will probably contain code for determining the game status (position of players, ammunition, shots fired etc.) and only make sense to the game's program code. No need to ecrypt this info as it is just numbers and make no sense to immortal souls such as ourselves. Some really really clever hacker may take the time to reverse-engineer the games' program code, but "clever" and "hacker" rarely go together. There are a few cases known where it was done however.
